The Absolute Series has been pretty incredible. I have about three issues left with each of the five remaining from getting fully caught up.

Martian ManHunter was pretty solid. I see why fans enjoyed this so much they convinced the writers to keep it going beyond its current 6 issue set. Existential and philosophical identity crisis drug trip meets secret agent shenanigans.

Batman has been...okay. I'm really not into body horror and it's kinda been my biggest hang-up with an otherwise massive favorite in DC. I'll credit this series for The Zoo. It starts out with one hell of an intro. I'm just...really not vibing with the direction they went immediately afterward. I'll keep trying, I swear. {don't at me!}

Superman has also been a bit of a journey. The twist of his origin has been very, very good. I guess the heart of what they're trying to show with the Absolute Universe is in the...darkness of the plot? Occasionally, single issues really stand out and blow me away. Other times, I feel the rug come out from underneath my feet and I feel like it was by design? Overall... undecided. Present Day Kal-El be fine, tho so...😉

Green Lantern is really cool. Jo Mullein, y'all. Well okay I haven't seen enough of her yet but I can vibe with her. John Stewart was rocking my frick frackin world in the issue that starred his deduction and philosophical questioning. His pursuit of knowledge to the mystery of this giant green cage. I don't wanna spoil this one for ppl. I feel like I'm vibing pretty hard with the lantern corp material.

Wonder Woman is literal perfection. Every single issue takes me into a story that leaves me feeling swooned. The artwork, the lettering, the writing...wow! The mythological elements, the magic she uses, the pure kindness she exudes. Her face. Her muscles. Her eyes.

When they use the flashbacks to tell the story of young Diana on the Wild Isle I get so emotional; so happy. Her mother sees a beauty in her beyond the growing legend around her and I can't tell you how massive that is as a queer person who never felt seen; truly seen by their early life caregivers. Expectation was everything in the darker reality I had to live and in this comic series which is meant to darken the plot in DC...a witch cast out to a lifeless island in hell raises a child and not only discovers love in her...but shows her love that is some of the purest love I have ever seen. I can't read these comics when I'm physically around people lol 😭

Then there's The Flash. Let me just...

Hello, Dr. Barry Allen. 🥰 🥵

It's a great story. I don't want my favoritism for Barry to overshadow Wally. I especially enjoy the angsty plot of a teenage boy who just wanted to feel a connection to someone find himself caught in a whirlwind as his newfound powers have been nothing but a curse from the onset. His only ally? A telepathic ape companion adorably latched to his hip like a young adult sci-fi fantasy novel plot.

Just...leave me with my sweet Barry for a little bit longer. Maybe don't wait up? We'll call --I mean I'll catch up to you later. "So, Dr. Allen. Tell me more about these tachyon particles. They sound so...alien."🤭

Brooks Investigations; aka your local hunks and heroes.

Got some small-time crimes you need uncovered? Small-town mysteries you’d like solved? Perhaps there’s a small child you can’t find? Or like, a small box you’ve misplaced somewhere and just can’t remember? Well that’s great because they really can’t handle anything too big, okay? That’s what the police are for. Kidding though, lol, come down to Brooks Investigations for all your investigatory needs and you’ll find that Barry Brooks, P.I., is the best in town which is probably because he’s the only [P.I.] in town (as far as he knows, which is either great or like, a huge red flag). Point is!!! He’ll get the job done!!! Unless it kills him!!! Or he just can’t do it!!!

Alright so HI I’m gonna be tossing something up specifically for Barry later, but right now I’m looking to 1. Develop his P.I. practice a bit which means, 2. Putting some feelers out for potential employees! At the moment, Barry is the boss. Will this change? Not unless you kill him but like, please don’t. What I’d like to give him is like private investigator partners - maybe a hacker, someone specialising in hunting shit down online because computers are not Barry’s forte. He’s more a pen-n-paper guy, you know? Maybe someone who is out on the streets with him? Maybe someone who looks really fucking good in wigs and disguises and honestly just wants a reason to show that off? These and more are all possibilities!!! Also he could desperately use a secretary or something to keep him grounded and organised and to peel him off the couch in the morning because he absolutely drank too much the night before and forgot his office wasn’t his home. Anyway it’s all fairly open rn, you can hmu on discord or here on tumblr if you’re interested ty!!!!

BARRY (7:43pm): DON’T LET ME FORGET I PUT BREAD IN THE TOASTER NATHAN: (7:43pm): DON’T FORGET TO PUT BREAD IN THE TOASTER

Then the above happened. Did Barry forget about the toast in the toaster or am I having a stroke?

“Woah! What’s yer rush?” Lottie huffed, barely managing to dodge some blonde guy. “Ya coulda turned me inta a pancake goin’ that fast!” Her Rockruff barked in agreement.

She wasn’t mad, more curious. Usually, if trainers were rushing like that there was something cool somewhere. And she wanted a part of it! If he kept going, she would follow.
